About This Document
This document describes mounting, installation and wiring of the WCX Series Valve Position Sensor and antennas.
Configuration, authentication and operation are covered in other documents.
Honeywell does not recommend using devices for critical control where there is a single point of failure or where
single points of failure result in unsafe conditions. OneWireless is targeted at open loop control, supervisory
control, and controls that do not have environmental or safety consequences. As with any process control solution,
the end-user must weigh the risks and benefits to determine if the products used are the right match for the
application based on security, safety, and performance. Additionally, it is up to the end-user to ensure that the
control strategy sheds to a safe operating condition if any crucial segment of the control solution fails.

Process Suggested location Explanation
Gases Above the gas line or gas valve The condensate drains away from the
sensor.
Liquids •Above but close to the
elevation of the process
valve or other control.
•Level with the process valve
or other control..
•The condensate drains away from
the sensor.
•This facilitates a horizontal linkage
between valve and sensor.

2.4 Bracket mounting
Orientation
The WCX Series sensor may be mounted in any vertical, horizontal or angled orientation. The main
consideration is to facilitate coupling of the valve or other device to the input shaft of the sensor.
For best signal, it is generally recommended that the antenna be oriented vertically (see section 4).
A higher elevation may give better signal range than a lower elevation, depending on obstacles.
Attach bracket to pipe
Figure 4 shows some commonly used customer-provided bracket and pipe orientations. Not all
possibilities are shown; any bracket (flat or angle) and orientation (parallel or transverse) may be used to
get the desired input shaft positioning with respect to the valve being monitored.
When considering brackets with flanged sides (as in illustration), insure that the whole portion of the
exposed input shaft extends past the flanges to provide sufficient clearance from the connecting linkage to
be used.
Position bracket on 2-inch (50.8 mm) pipe and install “U” bolt around pipe and through holes in bracket.

2. Sensor Mounting
2.4. Bracket mounting
Attach sensor to valve
Figure 5 shows a "U" shaped mounting bracket specifically fabricated to allow mounting of the sensor
above a valve. This allows the sensor input shaft to be coupled to the valve shaft, permitting easy manual
activation of the valve.
This will not be suitable for valves or devices with more than a 270 degree range of rotation.

2.4. Bracket mounting
Attach sensor to bracket
Align appropriate mounting holes in sensor with holes in bracket and secure the sensor to the bracket with
bolts and washers as needed. Use a backing plate for added strength as needed
Brackets and mounting hardware are user-supplied.
Sensor Mounting Attachment to bracket Example
Base of sensor mounted to
bracket, using threaded bolts
(sensor with threaded holes)
Alternate mounting holes
in end of heads, using
bolts, washers, and
lockwashers.
Base of sensor mounted to
bracket, using through bolts
(sensor with through holes)
Alternate mounting holes
in end of heads, using
nuts, bolts, washers, and
lockwashers. Use backing
plate if needed.
Side of sensor base mounted
to bracket, using threaded
bolts (sensor with threaded
holes)
Select two mounting holes
in end of heads, using
bolts, washers, and
lockwashers. Use backing
plate if needed.
